Rain Cover III - Mountainsmith

Peterson, Simon

If you’re looking for an inexpensive, easy solution to those soggy autumn sandwiches, look no further than the Mountainsmith Rain Cover III. With a slick design, this rain cover folds into itself, creating a convenient pouch that can be stuffed anywhere. The RC3 can cover large packs (between 5,000 and 6.000 cubic inches), and will cinch down quickly and easily to seal out moisture on a small day pack. It only weighs six ounces, and Mountainsmith makes even lighter covers for smaller packs. But for those overnight adventures, the RC3 doubles as a doggie poncho or a gear tent. There is no longer an excuse for soggy sandwiches, soaked gear, or unhappy mutts. The RC3 is light enough and small enough to bring on a picnic at the M trail or on an extended backpacking trip through the Beartooths. $20-$26; mountainsmith.com.
